Only one face is visible.
?B (narrow): A cable edge moulding runs up each side. Within it is a plain inner moulding which terminates in an inward turning scroll curling about a pellet.
This piece is very similar to no. 6 and, like it, resembles the shaft, Levisham 1 (Ills. 631–4). It may be the narrow face of a shaft. Some slightly later Danish rune-stones have similar scrolled terminals, like that from Vor Frue church, Århus (Fuglesang 1980, no. 86, pl. 51), representing a similar basic embellishment.
